Jim Thompson talks to CNN

In the year that Crown turns 50, a significant milestone for a private company, Jim Thompson, Crown’s Chairman, was invited to talk to Richard Quest for his CNN show, Quest Means Business.

Richard Quest is one of the most instantly recognizable members of the CNN team. His distinctive style has made him a unique figure in the field of business broadcasting and has welcomed world leaders to speak on his show.

Nowadays, it is rare to see a private company with any solid longevity, let alone 50 years. And, given that Crown’s headquarters is in Hong Kong, Jim Thompson was invited to provide comment on Hong Kong’s economic situation and the recent fallout from the protests.
